Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy

We use your personal data (hereinafter often referred to as "data") only when necessary to provide a functioning and user-friendly website with its content and services.

According to Article 4, Paragraph 1 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), any action related to personal data is considered "processing". This includes collecting, recording, organizing, storing, adapting, modifying, retrieving, consulting, using, disclosing by transmission, disseminating or otherwise making available, aligning or combining, restricting, deleting or destroying, whether automated or not.

In the following privacy policy, we want to inform you specifically about the type, scope, purpose, duration and legal basis of the processing of your personal data. This applies both to cases where we alone decide on the purposes and means of processing, and to cases where we decide together with others. We also provide information about external components that we use to optimize and improve the quality of use. In these cases, third parties process the data independently.

An objection to data processing for the purpose of direct marketing is also permissible.

III. Information on data processing

Server Data

For technical reasons, particularly to ensure a secure and stable online presence, data is transmitted to us or to our web space provider by your internet browser. This data is recorded in so-called server log files, including the type and version of your internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you switched to our website (referrer URL), the pages of our website visited, the date and time of each access, and the IP address of the internet connection from which our website is used.

The collected data is temporarily stored but not together with other data about you. This storage is based on Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving, stabilizing, functionality and security of our online presence. The data is deleted after 30 days at the latest, unless further retention is required for evidence purposes.

Cookies

We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are stored on your device by your internet browser. These cookies process certain information from you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, to an individual extent.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages or the provision of a shopping cart function. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for contract initiation or processing.

Contact Inquiries

When you contact us via the contact form or email, we use the data you provide to process your inquiry. The provision of this data is necessary to process and answer your inquiry. Without providing this data, we may not be able to answer your inquiry or only to a limited extent. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. b) GDPR.

Your data will be deleted as soon as your inquiry has been conclusively answered and there are no legal retention obligations preventing deletion, for example in the case of any subsequent contract processing.

Contract Processing

The data you transmit for the use of our goods and/or service offer is processed by us for contract processing and is therefore required. Without providing your data, neither the conclusion nor the processing of the contract is possible. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 lit. b) GDPR.

The data is deleted after complete processing of the contract, whereby tax and commercial law retention periods must be observed.
